What is a proxy or VPN?

A proxy or VPN is a program that allows you to browse the internet anonymously. When you use a proxy or VPN, your computer routes all of your internet traffic through a proxy server or VPN server.

This way, the website you are visiting thinks you are located in the proxy server’s country or region, not your own. This allows you to browse the internet without being tracked or monitored.

Some people use proxies and VPNs to protect their privacy. They may use a proxy to avoid being tracked by their employer, or they may use a VPN to protect their privacy while they are working on sensitive projects.

The main disadvantage of proxies and VPNs is that they can be slow and they can also be expensive. They can also be blocked by some websites and services.
